Ep. 285 - The hidden freedom in letting ...

Breakup Coach Dorothy
About this episode

In this episode, I reveal the counterintuitive truth about why letting go feels impossible (even when holding on is blocking everything you want), and the unexpected place where freedom is actually hiding. If you've been feeling like you know exactly what you need to do to move on from your ex but haven't been able to actually "do it", it's a must listen.

You'll discover a simple 3-step mental shift that finally breaks the cycle of attachment… without the struggle you've experienced so far. By the end of this episode, you'll have a clear path to stop caring so much about your ex and start channeling that energy into building the bigger, better life that's waiting for you. Most importantly, you'll see how letting go isn't about losing something, it's about creating the exact runway needed for the love and life you truly want to finally arrive.
